Summary: Buffer Overflow Attack? DoS Attack?

Initial Comment:
OpenSIPs 1.8.1 on CentOS 5.8 64bit

Everything worked fine until an attack started. No one was able to register or communicate and on log I can only see the following

Feb  2 15:29:28 sip03 /usr/sbin/opensips[20497]: ERROR:core:parse_cseq: expecting CSeq EoL

And then a registration request

Feb  2 15:31:29 sip03 /usr/sbin/opensips[20502]: ERROR:core:parse_msg: message=<REGISTER sip:tilman hausherr at x.x.x.x SIP/2.0^M Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 85.25.20.15:5107;branch=z9hG4bK-3045379966;rport^M Content-Length: 0^M From: "tilman hausherr"<sip:tilman hausherr at 91.217.155.70>; tag=74696c6d616e2068617573686572720133393033393337393433^M Accept: application/sdp^M User-Agent: friendly-scanner^M To: "tilman hausherr"<sip:tilman hausherr at x.x.x.x>^M Contact: sip:tilman hausherr at x.x.x.x^M CSeq: 1 REGISTER^M Call-ID: 660108110^M Max-Forwards: 70^M ^M >

Alot of errors and again an other Registration Request

Feb  2 15:33:08 sip03 /usr/sbin/opensips[20495]: ERROR:core:parse_msg: message=<REGISTER sip:u don't know at x.x.x.x SIP/2.0^M Via: SIP/2.0/UDP 85.25.20.15:5107;branch=z9hG4bK-2954121837;rport^M Content-Length: 0^M From: "u don't know"<sip:u don't know at x.x.x.x>; tag=7520646f6e2774206b6e6f7701383037303536343636^M Accept: application/sdp^M User-Agent: friendly-scanner^M To: "u don't know"<sip:u don't know at x.x.x.x>^M Contact: sip:u don't know at x.x.x.x^M CSeq: 1 REGISTER^M Call-ID: 3997264461^M Max-Forwards: 70^M ^M >

Is that a problem/bug in core? Is that a mistake on my script? In any case the result was Denial Of Service.

Message:
What is the frequency of these malformed SIP requests? Can you give some
estimate  of CPS?

To me it does not look like a bug but rather a voip security issue. If you
would post it to opensips user or develop mailing list then you would
probably get a quicker answer. Don't open a bug it you are sure its a bug.
It saves everybody's time.

Thank you.
